Building A Dream: From Warehouse Work to Creating a Supplement Brand in the U.S.
Greetings, readers,
I’m Vlad, and my journey brought me from Ukraine to the United States in early 2023. Fleeing a war-torn landscape, I arrived here with a dream and a firm belief that hard work can pave the way to success in America.
Starting anew in a foreign land meant undertaking various jobs to make ends meet—from warehouse worker to cable technician. Each role reinforced my desire to forge my own path. My encounters with entrepreneurial clients, while installing internet, were especially motivational. These experiences fueled my ambition to build something of my own.
This determination led my brother, Dalan, and me to embark on an entrepreneurial venture, despite our lack of experience. Dalan, with a passion for fitness and a budding knowledge of supplements, joined forces with me—creative at heart—to craft the visuals, branding, and content. Thus, our brand, RAZVAL, was born, focusing on sports nutrition. Our inaugural product: a testosterone booster, was conceived with passion and precision.
We checked all the boxes:
* Professional Website ✅
* Active Instagram & TikTok ✅
* Clean, Professional Branding ✅
However, months have passed, and our metrics remain stagnant: we’ve made zero sales.
The profound silence is disheartening, especially after countless nights invested in the venture. My efforts to create something authentic seem to have vanished into the void. I’m reaching out for guidance, wondering if I’m overlooking a key component or simply need a fresh perspective.
To my fellow entrepreneurs and business enthusiasts, have you ever faced a similar challenge? If you were in my position, what steps would you take?
